Every detail felt intentional and relaxing. The treatments were even better than expected, and Ashleigh, my masseuse, has angel hands. One of the best massages I've ever had. I left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed. I cannot recommend this spa enough -- I will absolutely be back.

This spa is beautifully decorated with many amenities to make it a relaxing experience. There are…read morelarge waiting areas in different areas that are decorated in calm, neutral colors with plenty of seating. Light snacks, like cranberries and nuts are provided along with hot tea options, and citrus flavored water. The space is very nice. There are locker rooms with plush spa robes and complementary slippers. The locker room has two steam showers if you want to wash yourself after your massage. They also provide hair products to try as well as a Dyson hair dryer. I was definitely very impressed with the luxurious feel of the spa, however, was turned off by the receptionist who checked me in - her robotic, transactional nature was starkly juxtaposed against the warmth of the spa. I noticed she was the same with all customers so it wasn't personal but interaction with her was unsettling. I booked the 60min signature hydrafacial and the esthetician was welcoming and willingly customized my facial based on my requests. No major issues encountered but I noticed we started 10 minutes late and ended 10 minutes early so I thought marketing it as a 60min experience was a bit misleading. Also note the 60min Signature Hydrafacial does not include any hand/neck massages nor boosters nor light therapy so the $285 price was much more expensive than my usual spa. I will not return for another facial but may try massage in the future. We also booked pedicures and again the space is beautiful!! We were given a palette to select colors and the ladies were extremely friendly! My toes came out adorable! I found the seating to be very uncomfortable for a short person despite many pillows placed behind me for support so I honestly struggled to enjoy the experience but the space was very nicely decorated and clean looking. We were offered tea and snacks at the beginning as well. Overall, this was a very nice spa. I found it fairly expensive and overpriced, but I recognize beautiful spaces have a cost and that's what I should've expected in the River Oaks area. There is complementary validated parking!

The cherry on top would have been if they offered to change into their robes while you waited but still a nice welcome party. Lisa invited me back to the room and re-confirmed my package - the Rest and Relaxation package came with a sugar foot scrub, aromatherapy, and a Swedish massage. The room came with a private change room, complete with a shower, a closet with a robe, slippers, towels and some toiletries. If you're staying in the hotel, you're welcome to use/take back to your hotel room. My masseuse, Lisa, was so professional and so gentle. She really made me feel rested and relaxed between the eye mask, foot scrub/rub, heated blankets and her massage. 60 minutes is never enough so ALWAYS opt for more time! After freshening up, she offered me some citrus water and escorted me to their zero-gravity room while I sat in their massage chair waiting for the indention from the pillow cushion to leave my face. If you're local to houston, call and schedule your appointments because they offer 20% off. They have their everyday services and they have seasonal services/packages so check back every few months to see what's new. This is a great place for a solo self-care day or even a day date with your boo or best friend.

I was excited to try another JW Marriott Spa after getting a massage at the JW in Dallas. I'm going…read moreto give several recommendations for those who are interested in attending based on my experience then get into my experience. 1 -Look at the spa services carefully and look for their specials and some of the treatments have combinations for extended time. I originally had issues trying to book my treatment online so I called and they were able to book the Perfectly Polished + Massage (80 minutes) for me. I wanted to add a mini-facial to it and the individual on the phone consulted me that I could actually add a small fraction of what I was already paying to the total cost and get a longer facial from the esthetician separately. So, while it was an upcharge, I was into the concept of giving myself the best experience so I booked that too. 2- Remember that you get free valet parking - I had this in the back of my mind but I forgot when I arrived so I purchased street parking one block over; the complimentary valet saves you time getting to the spa and of course money, so don't forget this. 3 - The spa is on the 11th floor - the elevators don't have a callout-there is a digital ad that pops up on the screen, but otherwise remember that. 4 - They give a discount for locals. There's a 20% check-in offer on my Yelp app, but they also give a discount for locals as well so remember to tell them if you are local. Just a note if you are staying in the hotel, it looks like they have specials as well based on the signage I saw today. 5 - Expect an efficient process - when you arrive you'll sit in a lounge until your tech is ready, then you will be in one room that will have a locker/shower and of course the massage items. After, they will offer for you to sit in one or two lounges, I chose the anti-gravity. More on that later. 6 - Share your Marriott status (if you have one) - When you check in, let them know your status and they may be able to offer you additional upgrades for your service - for instance, I was offered aromatherapy during my treatment. As for my service and experience: SERVICE I really enjoyed my treatment provided by Lisa. She started by reviewing items of concern from my pre-health check form and was great at asking about my comfort level throughout the process. I was able to immerse myself into the treatment and really enjoy the sensations. AMENITIES I stated before upon arrival you sit in a separate lounge and they offer you beverages, I enjoyed the citrus water but they did have coffee/tea available as well. After I finished my treatment I went into the anti-gravity room. I accepted the weighted blanket and the weighted and heated neck wrap which put me into a further calm state before heading back into the real world. The chair experience was relaxing and not too shaky. I wanted a little more sensation for my hands so I actually placed them on the chair. There are two chairs in the lounge but because it was pretty quiet today, I had it to myself and that was nice. STAFF The staff were wonderful - from Daurion, Lisa and the other individuals who helped me with booking, even with a few hiccups, it was still a pleasant experience. In fact, I have to return because my scheduled esthetician had a family emergency and we had to reschedule, but they were apologetic and offered a nice concession for when I return to have the service rendered. The only reason I didn't give this five stars was because of the issue with the booking and that there wasn't anyone else available to give the service that day but it's certain if everything had gone to plan, I would have given it 5 stars.

There aren't many ITL Houston spas--that aren't ridiculously priced--with an outdoor pool, hot tub,…read moreand sauna. Blossom Massage has all those, and has been around for a decade-plus with a great reputation. Dunno WHAT took me so long to check them out, but I recently bought a couples massage (which included all-day pool access) as a Christmas gift for my beau. We planned on getting there an hour before our massage to enjoy the hot tub (they requested that we call ahead to let them know and get the heat going). Our massage started promptly on time, and we both opted for deep tissue. I had Deanne, who specializes in Swedish and deep tissue massage (according to her bio on the website)... and let me say she has some STRONG hands. She found all my tension and pain-points and loosened me up. I was honestly a bit sore for days, but in a good way. A great reminder I need to take care of my body post workouts and after long days at the desk... My biggest feedback for them would be to have more info on their website about the pool access and what's offered (towels, robes) and how long we have pool access (it's all day, btw). Before booking, I had to call to get that info; it's be more convenient to add all of that info to their FAQ page. They also allow you to bring snackies, so I brought a fruit, cheese, and tinned fish spread. Also, wondering if they had hot tea service. That's always a nice touch post-massage. Looking forward to booking again!
